Well first of all it was great meeting everyone on the forum again, you guys are cool :)

Friday:

Saw a few of the guests, all of them were very lovely!

Fueled my comic book habit with money I don't have

Walking round as Xena was suprisingly not as cold as it looked.....leatherette doesn't breathe so actually got quite hot  :D  And I apologise to anyone I inadvertantly hit while gesturing with my sword. Which is quite alot of people I think   :P

I was accompanied by two absolutely lovely Arwens- JaY(Gears?!?!?) and Silent Bob (Silent? Me?) who were dressed as Frodo's Ringwraith wound induced dream Arwen and purple floaty dress Arwen and both looked completely stunning (but forgot to take pictures of them! *kicks self* if anyone has any would totally appreciate it)

Saturday:

Did my Xena thang again!  This time accompanied by most of the peeps from Dogma (that costume group totally rocked ;) ) Mighty Mo as Galadriel and a few non-costumed Thunderbirds obbsessed people! (I'm *never* going to get that theme tune out of my head!)

Was actually chuffed people wanting to take pictures of my costume! I thought it was going to fall apart by the second day or something... and most people knew who I was  ;)  (having costumed Elizabeth from Pirate of the Carribean last Collectormania and not been recognised too much it was a nice suprise to have people know who I was!)

Practically jumped Sarah dressed as Holovirus Rimmer when I first saw her! Such a damned cool costume! And I wants her Mr Flibble....

And the other girls (damn sieve memory, completely forgotten her name...) purple Arwen dress was beautiful!

Party was fun as well! Lots of people in absolutely awesome costumes. *worships 'Mr Hasslehoff and the Blonde Bimbo and the Knightrider car* Fantastic. Spent most of it dancing with Rimmer-Sarah who was a fantastic sport and didn't mind me harrassing her all evening :wub: I don't think....

All the people who did costumes that night rocked! I was amazed. And I apologise to the people I skidded to a stop in front of when I had to leg it from that bar for the costume competition! I didn't mean to block you!

And the Tracy boys were nuts. Certifiably :D And I'm harrassing you *all* at C7.

Sunday:

X-Men costume group! I was Storm and got harrassed by lots of small children... shame about the people who's costumes fell through at the last minute but it was still great!!

My Storm boots absolutely destroyed my feet unfortunately...five inch heels were not made to walk around in all day.

My friend Charon went as Phoenix but very few people recognised her *offers a cookie to anyone who recognised the Phoenix*

That's pretty much my weekend in a nutshell....I had a great time and roll on LFCC2 and C7!

Why thank you!!!! But Mr Flibble is mine, all mine, mwahahaha ;)  :rolleyes:

No I didn't mind at all, it was fun. After all where ele could you see Rimmer & Mr Flibble, Xena and a 12" Tracy brother dancing about!?

I loved all the costumes too. Your Xena was amazing and I'm annoyed I didn't get to see your Storm but I was sat behind a desk all day! :lol: I have seen a photo though and it looks cool!!! :wub:
Q, What is the point of sanity???

*plots to steal Mr Flibble*

As for the dancing you forgot Charon as the Rivendell elf! Though I never saw an elf dirty dance like that!

Then again I never saw Rimmer do the Macerena before either ;)

Lol! Yes I was a bit! I can never remember forum names so I don't expect other people to either....plus I only posted in the costume thread, I'm usually a bit of a lurker!
